Tube

Tube is a standalone web app that periodically fetches the RSS feeds of selected YouTube channels. A static index.html is created with a chronological view of all the published videos from subscribed channels. The app doesn't rely on the YouTube API and only uses the RSS feeds of the channels. The aim is to be simple and straightforward, KISS.
